Story Book Pumpkin-Pinkalicous Pumpkin

Last week I came across this blog post showcasing these storybook pumpkins- Check them out here: http://sunnydaysinsecondgrade.blogspot.com/2012/10/storybook-pumpkins.html?spref=fb

I absolutely loved each and every pumpkin on there. I think it is a very neat idea for each classroom to take the time to pick a favorite story and then brainstorm on how they can showcase that story on a pumpkin. I think my favorite on the list was Fancy Nancy. ADORABLE!

I know most of you who follow this blog know my daughter loves Pinkalicous! We just had a fun Pinkalicous Birthday party for her so we took some time to create our own story book pumpkin.

We had a white pumpkin just waiting to get painted so we started by painting the pumpkin pink. After the paint dried my daughter used markers to make the face. Then with my help I used yarn and pipe cleaners to make the pig tales. We also still had a wand from her party that Natasha Crafts had created and had to put that on. We also attached some pink wings just like Pinkalicous. The last thing we made was a crown using pipe cleaners. Overall my daughter loves it. We put the pumpkin next to our Mr and Mrs. Potato Head Pumpkins on our porch swing... I love our pumpkins this year!

Common Mistakes Made When Writing a Will

Writing a will should, by all means, be a simple thing. You want to make sure that your assets are being left to your loved ones and that your final wishes are being fulfilled. Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...

A big thank you to Andy who sent me some amazing cookies to try to conduct my review. :) All opinions expressed are 100 % mine and I was not paid for this review. About Sweet Andy's Cookies: The “Thank You” Cookie In 2009, Andrew (Sweet Andy) found himself in a position like so many others at that time in our past; the economy was quickly spiraling downward and he had left his job in the financial services industry. Although Andy had an MBA in Banking and Finance and had even written a book entitled, “A Guide to Taking Control of Your Investments”, he found himself to be disenchanted with the financial industry and left to pursue “other work.” The “other work” that Andrew pursued was with the Church and did not provide financial support for the family. During this time Andy and his wife, Lissa, struggled to find other forms of income. They did what they could for themselves and their five children but often it was not enough. But there were...
